DescriptionThis title looks at the lives of gorillas - from their birth to growing up, how they feed, grow, hunt, rest and clean. Photographs show the gorilla at every stage of its life and the text aims to allow young readers to understand a gorilla\\\'s life. ReviewsThe real test for any marketing claims laid on classroom resources lies with real classroom practice and exposure to real children. In the Wild books passed this test with flying colours when I used them recently across three reception classes, and they generated a real buzz of enthusiastic sharing and questioning!. Its success is due to its fabulous photography, making all aspects of the animal's life visually accessible, and giving rise to excellent opportunities for discussion and questioning. -- TES Teacher 20050304 Author descriptionThe author, Patricia Kendell, writes material to help children understand why much wildlife is in danger and what they can do to help.
